Graphic Overlays and Decals

The membrane keypad's visual overlay consists of a top layer of screen printing. Customers can choose a matte or glossy finish for these overlays made of polycarbonate or polyester. An integral part of the membrane switch is the graphic overlay and decals that label the many buttons, windows, LEDs and printed materials with the instrumen's name and logo. Screen printing uses a stencil and coloured ink to create colourful images on white fabric. After printing and trimming, this layer serves as the graphic overlay.

What makes our product the best?

Base Material

The first step in creating a graphic overlay is deciding on a material. Common options include polycarbonate and polyester. Polyester is superior for long-term use, while polycarbonate excels when cost and visual appeal are primary concerns. Vinyl is less widely used than other materials

Ink

Subsurface (or second-surface) printing is used for overlays made of polyester or polycarbonate. This takes place when a mirrored image is printed on a transparent substrate. A flawless pattern is preserved when the material is flipped over and protected from wear and tear.

Adhesive

The adhesive is used as the final layer of a graphic overlay. What you plan to attach to your Graphic will dictate the required strength and thickness of the adhesive. An overlay on strongly textured plastic would require a significantly different adhesive than one on flat, powder-coated metal.

Specialized cutting and form design

Laser cutting, digital cutting, die cutting, sheering, and plotting are just a few of our specialized cutting and shaping techniques. IntraAction Electronics the best graphic overlay manufacturer has cutting-edge machinery capable of fabricating components of any imaginable form.

Specific adhesives

Some overlays have features that don't require adhesives, like a see-through window or an LED cut-out.

Texture selection

Various textures, including full texturing and hard coatings, are available for production when making graphic overlays. You can add textured parts selectively to cover up windows or LED cut-outs or to create visual interest and contrast.

Graphic Overlays Application Fields

The Graphic overlay combines a see-through glass with available text, mark, trademark, and display. Graphic overlays can be designed to showcase the one-of-a-kind combination of product features and creative colour schemes. Intelligent electronic measuring tools, medical instruments, computer control, computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools, terminal communication equipment, and a wide range of industrial and household appliances all make use of thin graphic overlays. IntraAction Electronics takes great pleasure in being able to produce highly tailored overlays for specialized projects and applications

Graphical Overlays from IntraAction Electronics give you a wide variety of customization choices. Each product line has its own unique set of controls and displays, and so can your overlay. The three most important components are the substrate, the ink, and the glue. Understanding how an overlay is put together to create new ones better or negotiate pricing with your graphics provider is helpful.
